She tells the story of how it all got started. She noticed him at a club one night and described him as “Kind of pretty, hot and tempting.” Although she liked what was in her purview, she rejected Slim when he asked for her number.

But after a while of fiddling with the idea in her mind, she took a chance on the young guy.

“It took me four days to work up the courage to ask for his number and we’ve pretty much been inseparable ever since,” she said. And about a year later on December 26, Slim proposed to Vivica at the Ritz-Carlton in Miami’s South Beach.

Their wedding day is set for some time in late fall next year.

When asked if she wants children, the 46-year-old said, “Soon. I need to my clock’s ticking … real bad.”
